In a classic David versus Goliath affair, Manchester City could not let an opening goal lead themselves to victory, dropping points to pesky Burnley, 1-1 at Turf Moor.

The Pep vs Dyche clash had everything you would expect but Burnley will feel the victors in this draw. City dominated possession, which the Clarets had no problem with, but they did allow Danilo space to shoot from long range and he scored a beauty in the 22nd minute, assisted by Bernardo Silva. The Citizens looked the likelier side to score the next goal for the rest of the half and into the second frame, but Sergio Aguero and Raheem Sterling were not finding the finishing touch. Sterling in fact missed a complete sitter and Burnley would make them pay with a late equalizer. Ederson was City's best performer, making a couple of world class saves that turned out to be the reason they earned the lone point. Feb 3 - 9:36 AM

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola confirmed that goalkeeper Ederson is ready for Saturday's match at Watford.

The summer signing was taken off on a stretcher last weekend after sustaining facial injuries from a collision with Liverpool's Sadio Mane, who was sent off for the challenge. But Ederson played wearing a helmet in the club's Champions League win this week against Feyenoord and is set to start against Watford. Said Guardiola: "He still has stitches. He made one training session before the game. He trained well – of course, he played with a helmet – and he said he wants to play. He’s strong." Meanwhile, Vincent Kompany is closing on a return from a calf injury after returning to training. Fri, Sep 15, 2017 06:21:00 PM

Ederson has escaped serious injury after he was caught by Sadio Mane’s high boot flush in the face.

The Liverpool attacker was chasing down a long pass over the top, as Ederson rushed from his goal, the ball bounced high with Mane’s studs sinking into the face of the Manchester City goalkeeper who headed the ball clear. After a lengthy stoppage, the Brazilian stopper was stretchered from the field shortly before half-time while referee Jon Moss issued a straight red to the Liverpool player. Fortunately, tests confirmed Ederson did not suffer any broken bones and he took to Twitter to post an update: ‘Hello everyone, I'm OK, is a shock. Important Victory. Thank you all for messages’. Pep Guardiola declined to comment on the dismissal after the game: "Mane didn't see him, he was looking at the ball but the impact was huge. I don't know if it was a red card. I didn't speak about the decision when we had Kyle Walker sent off against Everton so I will not now." Sat, Sep 9, 2017 11:45:00 AM
